A cleanser dissolves away excess oil, makeup and grime from your face. These are oil-soluble impurities. They can be removed by a face wash too, but that might be not be 100% effective. A face wash’s job is to remove deeper seated debris and also cleanse pores, thanks to its foaming action.

However, while a cleanser and face wash both serve the same basic function—to nix makeup, oil, product, and grime from your face—the way in which they do so is different. A face wash is usually better for very oily skin types, while a face cleanser is often universally helpful.

A face wash is removes dirt, grime and impurities from your face. You get a thoroughly clean and refreshed feeling after using a good face wash and it is comparatively mild and gentle on skin. A cleanser, on the other hand, is a gentler formula compared to face wash and it’s a non-foaming product.
